Wow, great car, great guy and really interesting watch. Im currently restoring my 1981 DHC, I originally bought it in 1989 when i was 16, my dream car from watching the rallying when i was a kid, ive just picked up a 3.5l V8, subframe etc so it'll hopefully sound as good as yours when its finished 🤞
Just discovered your channel, TH-cam obviously thought I'd like it and I do, so I've subscribed There seems to be a great classic car culture in Australia, it's interesting to see what people are doing on the other side of the world. Great channel, best of luck with it.
Thanks Ratman. Make sure you subscribe to the original channel as well @davesclassicgaragetours I had to split them because Aussies weren’t watching cars from overseas and the algo didn’t like that
@@DavesClassicGarageToursV2 OK, I found the other channel, I won't be able to watch them all and get anything else done. I'm not into American cars much but anything Italian and most British. Not sure I understand the reasoning for the V2, I'm guessing that's for the non domestic cars. Cheers.
@@ratman9802 yes unfortunately my mostly over 45 male Aussie audience only watched V8 Aussie stuff over there so as soon as an Austin Healey appeared the viewing figures would fall off a cliff and youtube decided everyone would rather not watch the video so impressions went down as well. As you can see here, I'm still struggling to break out of the Antipodean archipelago. My fault though, other factors have meant I haven't been abke to regularly repost some weeks
@@DavesClassicGarageToursV2 Perhaps I have over estimated the Aussie classic culture but I've seen quite a few videos from there on classic Fiat, Alfa and Lancia and I've always enjoyed them; there's more than enough V8 stuff from the US. I've been watching a series on a Fiat 124 Sport Coupe (here www.youtube.com/@FISHERBUILT) I have just bought one of these. Anyway, great channel, loved the TR7. All the best, Chris.
Amazing job Danny! Great video Dave, thanks for sharing! We remember the days of supporting Tony Pond’s magnificent driving of an ex-works TR7 V8 in high-profile events such as the 1998 Coys International Historic Festival weekend of racing at Silverstone. Keep up the great work! :)
Thanks guys. Danny’s invited me to a sprint event coming up in a few months. Cannot wait. Now if I only had the spons to buy the ‘78 fhc on marketplace this week.
What a car! and a thoroughly bloody good bloke. Thanks for sharing top stuff! As for The New Avengers TR7, it only appeared in a few episodes because it kept breaking down with electrical problems. It never put Joanna Lumley off as she had a convertible converted to a Grinnall V8 in the 1908's....as did I. Still have a 7 all original and has never been welded, I have not upgraded it at all because I want the drive to be as it was when I was a 20 year old and that adds to the experience. The turning circle on the 7 is way superior to modern cars these days. Great video luv it!!
Great job, Danny, well done! ...and thanks, Dave, for presenting his work to everyone! Best wishes for this channel!
Awesome! Great job Danny! Paul will be pleased with the plug! Well done Dave. Keep up the great work. Cheers boys.
Nice one Keith. I’m gutted this channel hasn’t quite gotten the traction yet but I’ve sat on this vid for long enough.
